Avoid Things Lyrics by Tems

If Orange Was A Place

2021

[Intro]
*Inaudible*

[Verse 1]
In the morning when you're not with me
I feel you in the depths of mind, I found it in deep
Coming through is all I ever want to do
I fall in the steps of human beings
And it's all on you
Now it's onto you, now it's onto you
Now it's onto you, now it's onto you
Now it's onto you, now it's onto you
Now it’s on

[Chorus]
I try to avoid things
Avoid things
But there's no one, this is madness
Avoid things
I try to resolve things
Involve you
But you don't want to be sorry

[Verse 2]
Page me on the beeper, babe
I need a request, babe
I need reason to wait while you relaxing
Take me away today, I'm on a wave today
I whine my waist, and I craze, while my mind's awake
And it's a migraine to play your mind games
You're like a cold place, don't need a cold place
And if you ain't mine then we just waste time
Until new day

[Chorus]
I try to avoid things
Avoid things
But there's no one, this is madness
Avoid things
I try to resolve things
Involve you
But you don't want to be sorry (Sorry, oh-oh, yeah-yeah, yeah)

[Bridge]
Badman wanna do me, bad man wanna cry
Badman wanna play mind games on me
Badman wanna craze, save me from this
Save me from, save me from
Badman wanna do me, bad man wanna cry
Badman wanna play mind games on me
Badman wanna craze, save me from this
Save me from, save me from

[Chorus]
I try to avoid things
Avoid things
But there's no one, this is madness
Avoid things
I try to resolve things
Involve you
But you don't want to be sorry
Eh, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
*Inaudible*
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Yee-ee, ee-ee, yeah, ee-ee
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Yee-ee, ee-ee, yeah, ee-ee
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Yee-ee, ee-ee, yeah, ee-ee
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Yee-ee, ee-ee, yeah, ee-ee
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
